Re 5: only if you’re doing it with a dildo/vibrator/other dick-shaped object in my experience. I went through a phase of only masturbating to have clitoral orgasms (understood to mean you’re only really stimulating the external parts of your clitoris) and my pelvic floor tone became TERRIBLE. That wasn’t the only factor, but the whole problem cleared up once I got myself a nice dildo again. Your vagina needs something to contract around to tone all those muscles. But once it does, then yes, everything’s great!

These Manchester posts are written by someone who knows fuck all about the city. I’ve only lived there since February and even I know that she gets stuff wrong all the time and has apparently never been anywhere that you can’t get to on the Magic Bus. Get a new writer for these, Buzzfeed, someone who’s actually from Manchester, or don’t bother.

I deleted my Livejournal in a fit of embarrassment about my fan fiction - my LJ had a username which easily linked back to my real name. I’m kind of sad about it now. I have copies of the fan fiction on my computer, but I’d like to see again which blogs I was following and what I said about them and stuff. It’s probably cached somewhere, but I have no idea how you’d find it.

Speaking as a woman whose ribs stick out: the problem with this is that a mannequin is supposed to be kind of neutral - even with especially fancy ones, they’re just there to hang clothes on. Having a mannequin with visible ribs implies that ribs-showing is a ‘neutral’ body type, which would make anything larger a deviation. This is in spite of the fact that if your ribs show, you’re particularly thin - not unhealthy, but definitely thin. It’s one symptom of the way in which the range of bodies we’re shown as ‘normal’ vary from ‘thin’ to ‘dangerously thin’ - which isn’t right.

OK, so to all these people in the comments saying ‘OMG these gifs are so bad because it’s belittling these people’s opinions!’ The existence of bisexuality is not something that’s down to an opinion. There are bisexual people in the world. This is a fact. I’m one of them. And do you know what’s really weird and fucking insulting for me? Being told that I don’t exist. Scratch that, being told I’m confused, or people assuming I’ll ‘pick a side’ in the end. So yeah, the author of this post does have a fucking opinion they’re making clear. I don’t think they’re under any obligation to be objective and in any case, I will repeat, this isn’t a matter of opinion. It’s a fact that bisexual people exist so it’s bizarre and stupid to say that they don’t. As implied by completely not harmful silly gifs of Latrice Royale and Leslie Knope.

Piers Morgan proudly has no respect for other people’s privacy. As editor of a national newspaper, he would send paparazzi to hound people he thought had insulted him. He also regularly hacked people’s voicemail (as referred to above). His newspaper published fake photos of Iraqi prisoners being abused by British soldiers for the shock value: at best, they didn’t check their sources properly and at worst (and most likely) they knew they were fake before publication. He’s a despicable human being who would sell his own grandmother for a news story and I couldn’t care less whether people call him petty names on Twitter - he deserves a lot worse. He hasn’t ever had to face the consequences of what he’s done, and my God you need better TV in the US if he was the most intelligent person on it (which I’m sure isn’t true).

I don’t think they’re shaming skinny women, especially Kate Winslet. I think she’s just pointing out that it’s uncommon for women to be that size and it’s not something you should aim for as an ideal, just as you shouldn’t aim for any body type that isn’t natural for you.

I don’t think they’re necessarily ‘choosing’ a gender, and almost certainly not being pushed to choose one. It seems more like it’s about allowing them to dress/act how they want to, regardless of what gender that might usually signify.

“If it was a woman being led round on a leash there’d be OUTRAGE” - yes because society treats men and women differently and so those actions would have different implications.Regardless, I suspect it’s a kinky thing. So wouldn’t really make a difference it was a woman actually.

A lot of gay men of that generation (and previous ones) who married women had very interesting, loving relationships with them. Sometimes the wives didn’t know and never suspected a thing. Sometimes they did know and accepted the marriage for what it was - and I’ve read stories where those men have described the intense love they had for their wives, just not a sexual love. Sometimes, of course, it caused absolute misery for everyone involved. There are a lot of very poignant stories out there about this kind of relationship.

Why would you need a gender-specific gift card for a baby shower? Also, vis a vis the relative influence differences in male and female brains as opposed to cultural conditioning in determining gendered traits, everyone should read ‘Delusions of Gender’ by Cordelia Fine. That book actually breaks down the science behind these things. Really interesting.

@lisam30, I don’t think tampons are icky, and I’m not a little girl, but I don’t use them because I don’t find them comfortable. Don’t know why, just never got on with them. Does that make me ‘a pussy’? Everyone deals with their period however they friggin want, if there’s one thing we don’t need to get judgy about it’s that.

#28 I go there! I’m writing this from that building! (The one with the clock, not the chapel on the right, that’s separate) And yeah, it’s pretty great to be educated and live somewhere so beautiful, although I think most British students would disagree with you about our tuition fees being affordable… ‘better than the US’ does not mean affordable for sure.

I’ve come across men who don’t get this whole thing because they’d be thrilled if a woman came up to them and complimented them etc. And hey, maybe it would be nice if we could all just compliment each other innocently. Thing is, those guys would love it if someone said something about the way they look because it would be out of the blue. It gets a bit tiresome when you get judged on your appearance all the time. Also, because most women have had an experience where that ‘compliment’ turned nasty, or they at least know someone for whom it did, a guy saying something like this to you always puts you on your guard. Add to this the fact it starts as soon as you hit puberty, and it always makes you unsettled. When you’re a child and grown men are leering at you, that’s scary (first time I was catcalled, I was 12).Being flat-chested and usually wearing boyish clothes, you’d think there wouldn’t be much for men to comment on but no! I get variations on ‘give us a smile’ all the time, which is one I really don’t get. They don’t walk around the streets grinning, so why do they expect me to?

Is the spider one bad? That’s something I would do… I’m terrified of spiders, I would totally be too scared to kill it. Trap it and let someone else deal with it, I think that’s legit. I deal with things my housemates are scared of like moths and wasps, they can deal with spiders for me.

1) Let’s be charitable and presume that the Dad doesn’t actually laugh in the kid’s face, so it’s not like he’s causing any huge emotional damage at this point. 2) While it will be a bit embarrassing for him when he’s older, I don’t think it’s going to cause him any serious emotional damage to know that a bunch of people on the internet who he’s never met and is never going to meet saw pictures of him crying as a toddler. It’s not like it’s something you’d be embarrassed to admit as an adult: ‘When I was a tiny child I used to cry.’ Lighten up, it’s fine.

Trouble with the Mail is you can’t tell who’satroll and who isn’t. Schindler’s List obvs is, as is Jimbo on sex, but that Pompeii one… I’m not sure. Oh well, guess I’ll just have to ‘suck it in’, as the Yanks apparently say.
